  • The Future of Immersive Theatre

    The future of immersive theatre seems bright, with technology constantly becoming more advanced. As one of the most important new forms of live entertainment, a lot of attention is put on technology, and due to it being life, technology is used differently. With most immersive theatre companies remaking classics, technology will be needed to be used in a more profound way to help with lightning and live special effects. The use of augmented reality and virtual reality has already started with various performances such as Gunpowder Plot and Doctor Who. Virtual reality is used in many different forms of entertainment, including gaming and now will be vital to the growth of the immersive theatre scene. Virtual reality uses lighting, positioning, and even dialogue to position those who are partaking in the production or attending to view the production differently. Virtual technology enhances the overall effect of the story due to special effects being easily displayed through the use of VR. With most aspects of entertainment going online, such as with online streaming, immersive theatre is providing people with a way to be even more involved in the production they are watching than ever before. With the ‘realness’ in mind, this form of theatre production is a brand-new way of including audience members into the plot of a story and provides an exciting outlook on the future of entertainment. With titles that are revisited by immersive theatres, the industry will be slowing down anytime soon. With cinemas closing all over the world, this is a step in the right direction in keeping movies alive and well without the use of pre-produced material. Attending any immersive production is more than just watching actors perform their lines; it is seen as a form of entertainment that will grow with the times without losing its power in being more real than any other form of storytelling. 

  • The Great Gatsby Review: Live and Immersive

    One for the Jazz heads and classic story lovers. The Great Gatsby story is no longer bound to books and screen; now, fans of the story can experience the story for themselves. With the rise in popularity of immersive theatre, it is no surprise that Immersive LDN thought the world needed a revisit to this classic. The immersive production of The Great Gatsby was first done in 2019 and was quickly stopped by the covid 19 restrictions. With the first batch of performances, the show brought fans just what they were looking for, attending a party hosted by Gatsby. It’s as you always imagined it, just ‘real’ and better. The actors and guest actors are outshining what is expected of the characters and atmosphere with live performances and scenes spanning throughout the production. It’s not the easiest story to bring to life, especially without a stage. But the performance has been running since 2029 for a good reason, and that is that it is phenomenal. The music and dance numbers are just what you would expect, and it doesn’t disappoint. As with the 2013 film, the production takes you on a colourful and daring adventure of partying, romance, lavish lifestyle, and a classic revisited. The production also has a narrator, all the famous lines and imagery that you can only imagine until witnessed with this immersive theatre piece. If you are not familiar with the story, it’s good to know that it was set in 1922 and as you are attending, you need to fit the bill. All attendees dress to impress and get a tour through Gatsby’s mansion before the party starts. The newly revisited batch of performances is toned down to become socially distanced, with the crowd not being as close to the action as previously. Although still in the mansion, the audience is not involved in such an impression as before. Yet the piece is not disappointing and is still one of the most entertaining immersive acts yet.
